LGTM, but the docs should be updated: https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/stdlib/REPL/#Changing-the-contextual-module-which-is-active-at-the-REPL

Prompted by this change, I've just had a thought: could M-m when in Main take you back to the module you just came from?

Seems reasonable to me at least.

I've just been finding myself using the handy <Module> M-m when I want to try a tweak to something internal to it, M-m to go back to Main ... and then realising I need to repeat the process again and am typing <Module> M-m a whole lot.

Maybe this is just me, but if it isn't I think it could be quite nice to have.

@tecosaur that does seem like a good idea. Are you planning to PR it?
